Event Coverage

More than 250 dairy producers and industry representatives gathered at the University of Florida in Gainesville, on Sept. 18, for the 55th Annual Florida Dairy Production Conference.

It’s become a tradition for the Progressive Dairy team to scope out new products, ideas and innovations to share with readers following World Dairy Expo in Madison, Wisconsin. The 2019 show, with the theme of “Tools for Dairy’s Progress,” had plenty to offer.

From show ring display setup to commercial exhibitor move in, working at World Dairy Expo’s official gift shop to parking cars, assisting ringside and beyond, Richard Stampfl has filled a variety of roles.

World Dairy Expo is enjoyed by more than 65,000 people from nearly 100 countries each year. At the annual event, board members, sponsors and countless volunteers come together to make it the best possible experience for visitors, industry professionals and exhibitors.

Avonlea Genetics Inc. aims to supply tools for dairy’s progress while striving to earn World Dairy Expo champion honors to add to their herd’s award tool chest.

A yearly highlight for World Dairy Expo, the Dairy Forage Seminars will once again be held along with the World Forage Analysis Super Bowl to provide educational opportunities to attendees.
